Spain's socialist Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez launched a disgraceful attack on the United States and Israel Wednesday, condemning their righteous military operations against Iran's terrorist regime as "absurd, cruel and illegal" violations of international law.
Sánchez's outrageous comments reveal the dangerous leftist mindset that has infected European leadership – siding with Islamic terrorists over democratic allies who are simply defending their citizens from Iran's proxy war machine.
While President Trump works to restore American strength and support our Israeli allies against the Iranian threat, European socialists like Sánchez are busy lecturing the good guys and providing political cover for the world's leading state sponsor of terrorism.
Europe's Dangerous Appeasement
This isn't surprising coming from Spain's far-left government, which has consistently opposed strong action against Iran while appeasing the mullahs' regime. Sánchez represents everything wrong with European socialism – weak on security, sympathetic to America's enemies, and more concerned with virtue signaling than protecting innocent lives.
Iran has spent decades funding Hamas, Hezbollah, and other terror groups that murder civilians. Their proxy networks have American and Israeli blood on their hands. Yet Sánchez thinks the problem is America and Israel defending themselves?
"Spain's socialist leadership would rather side with terrorists than stand with democratic allies fighting for their survival," one foreign policy expert told Next News Network.
This is exactly why President Trump's America First foreign policy is so crucial. While European leftists coddle terrorists and lecture our allies, Trump understands that strength – not appeasement – is the only language Iran's regime respects.
Patriots should remember which so-called "allies" stand with America when it matters most. Sánchez's Spain clearly isn't one of them. When push comes to shove, socialist Europe shows its true colors – and they're not red, white, and blue.
How long will Americans tolerate "allies" who side with our enemies over our national security interests?
